Can i run it a low detail?

Honestly mate I think you'd have trouble... the video card is pretty weak and you'd probably want some more ram. I have a two year old PC, I play on low settings and while it ran fine at the end of beta, last two days has been HELL for my gaming in Hyboria with constant freezes and pauses in gameplay.
When it runs, it looks pretty decent even on lowest settings... really wish I had the $ to get a new pc because I'm envious as hell of the people who play the game maxed out to all it's glory and shine. I'm even considering cancelling my sub until I can get a new rig : but at least I have my CE hehe.
BOYCOTTING EA / ORIGIN going forward.
Change the video card and put in at least 2 GB Ram, preferably 3 (total of 4) and you might run okay at medium with some tweaking of certain settings.
Don't mean to hijack the thread, but I'm also wondering how the game will run on my rig.
I've got a beautiful 23" Apple screen that runs 1920x1200, powered by a 8800GTX, 2GB of 1066, and a Core2Duo @ 2.6GHz. XP SP2 32bit of course.
It can run CoD4 (Singleplayer and Multiplayer) and Assassin's Creed sweet at full settings.
AoC looks to take a new angle on combat, which is what I'm really itching for, while still feeding my MMO addiction :P
Any idea on how my rig will cope? Will it run the game in it's full glory at 1920x1200 or will I be stuck with blurry scaling?
I think you'll be fine mate and if you add more ram it'll just be a bonus.
BOYCOTTING EA / ORIGIN going forward.
I have pretty much the same exact system as you and with updating the Nvidia display drivers to 175.16 last night all I can say is WOWIE!
I'm getting 80-105 FPS and the game is simply gorgeous. Now I'm playing at 1024x768 resolution and medium to high graphic settings, but I prefer speed and smoothness over more eye candy.
There is a problem with Nvidia cards and I had it to start. i originally wasn't seeing particle effects like spells, fires et al. With the simply driver update last night it cured the problem instantly.
The thing is, I need to play at full resolution in order to get a sharp picture, and this is my main worry. I could play with some of the screen blacked out but then the picture would be too small to compared with what I'm used to.
Your post seems to confirm my worries if you have to use medium settings at 1024 in order to get a smooth experience, assuming your rig is the same as mine
I have played Crysis , COD4.
Crysis the detail settings was a low and some at medium and was good.
COD4 at medium was fine.
My game just patched up.... I played for about 30mins flawlessly. No stuttering at all... great patch, really helped my 2 year old PC. GeForce 7600 GT KO graphics run smooth, LOW settings... didn't bother to try MED yet since the last patch:
BOYCOTTING EA / ORIGIN going forward.
